[Tradjazz] Galvanized Jazz Band Alert!

[VIGORJAZZ at aol.com]

Hi GJB Fans,

SUNDAYS at Marisa's in Trumbull!
We look forward to seeing you all again at Marisa's this  Sunday,   June 10th 
with trombonist Craig Grant, and vocalist Jane Campedelli. This will be our 
last Sunday at Marisa's until after the summer, so don't miss this very special 
performance.  Be sure to make your reservations early, like yesterday!   
Remember, there is no cover or minimum at Marisa's, but because the food is 
fabulous, you're going to want to order dinner.   Marisa's is very easy to get to: 
take the Merritt Parkway toward Trumbull, get off at Exit 48, head north for 
about 3 miles, and it's on your right.   This is a good size restaurant, with 
plenty of seating and parking.   From Guilford, it took me only 35 minutes to 
get there.   Marisa's address is 6540 Main Street, Trumbull, CT 06611.   The 
telephone number is 203-459-4225.   Call now, before it sells out again! 

Jazz Lunch at Bill's Seafood! 
The Heartbeat Jazz Quintet with Bill Sinclair, Sherman Kahn, Donn Doucette, 
Bill Logozzo, Fred Vigorito, and vocalist Terry Thomas were at Bill's Seafood, 
Boston Post Road, Westbrook this past Wednesday from 11:45AM to 1:45 for the 
last time until the fall. It was a great day, with some great tunes.   Sherm 
did his Begin the Beguine, Bill did his My Memphis Baby, Terry sang Confessin' 
and Baby Won't You Please Come Home.   It was a full house, and we're grateful 
for your support, especially you regulars.   I know I saw a tear or two as we 
all sang We'll Meet Again, but “don't let the parting upset you, we'll meet 
again some sunny day" in September! 
   
Sun July 1, 6-8:30, Beachhead Restaurant, 3 Cosey Beach Ave East Haven, CT. 
That's right, East Haven, where I was born 64 years ago! The location and views 
are spectacular!   Right on Long Island Sound!   It's our first appearance at 
the Beachhead.   In fact, it's our first club date ever in East Haven.   It's 
dinner and dancing to the Galvanized Jazz Quintet.  Call 203-469-5450 for 
dinner reservations now.  This is a great spot, with great food (I ate there 
recently!), but limited seating, so make your dinner reservation now!!   This 
could be the start of something BIG.   Remember that other Sunday gig we had in 
Northford!

Bill Logozo's Heartbeat Jazz Band will be at Olivers in Essex on Thursday, 
June 7th, 7-10PM, with Noel Kaletsky and Skip Hughes!   This is a great spot, 
nice atmosphere, and good food at a reasonable price.    Of course the music is 
hot hot hot!   Dancing too!   Look for them at Olivers the first Thursday of 
each month.   They'll also be at the West Hartford Senior Center on Tuesday, 
June 5th, 7-8:30PM.   Contact Bill Logozzo at Bill @nutmegchrome.com for 
information on the band and how to order CDs.
